The Royal Australian Mint celebrates the 2027 Year of the Goat with this 50c Tetradecagon Uncirculated Coin, featuring the rarely seen 14-sided shape.
The Goat is the eighth of the twelve signs in the Chinese zodiac. According to legend, twelve animals participated in a race across a river to allow the Jade Emperor to establish the order of the zodiac signs. The Goat finished in eighth place, followed by the Monkey and the Rooster; the three animals had worked together to cross the river on a raft. People born in the Year of the Goat are said to be creative and compassionate. 2027 is the Year of the Fire Goat.
The reverse design features a beautiful long-haired goat amongst sprays of Chinese sacred lilies, a type of daffodil that symbolises good fortune when it blooms in the Lunar New Year period. The obverse features the Daniel Thorne effigy of His Majesty King Charles III. The coin is packaged in an auspicious red presentation card.
